(2000-12-18)Methods, devices, and computer program products display visual choral speech to a patient who stutters or has a speech impediment or impairment as a visual stimulus for the patient to enhance the fluency of the patient. ... -
Motor Learning Guided Treatment with Childhood Apraxia of Speech: Cueing & Feedback
(East Carolina University, 2011)The aim of this study was to determine if participants with childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) respond with improved speech production when provided motor learning guided (MLG) treatment strategies. Five participants, ... -
Multilevel Discourse Processing Analyses in Adults with a Cognitive Impairment
(East Carolina University, 2016-12-13)Participants with a cognitive impairment associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) present with discourse impairments early within the disorder. These discourse impairment are associated with declines in episodic, semantic, ... -
Normative Velopharyngeal Data in Infants: Implications for Treatment of Cleft Palate
(2016)Identifying normative data related to velopharyngeal muscles and structures may have clinical significance for infants born with cleft palate, especially as they relate to selection of surgical intervention and post-surgical ... -
Notched Acoustic Stimulus and Tinnitus: A Treatment Intervention Using a Randomization Test Approach
(East Carolina University, 2014)Musical training has considerable effects on human brain plasticity and music listening has been investigated as a means of treating tinnitus. In a laboratory setting, tailor-made notched music has been shown to reduce ... -
Note taking skills using the LiveScribe pen: implications for college students diagnosed with learning disabilities
(East Carolina University, 2014)The purpose of this study was to examine whether the use of strategic note-taking with the LiveScribe© pen increased the quantity of idea units, quality of notes written down, and retention of information provided for ... -
Orphan Glutamate Receptor delta-1 Subunit Required for High-Frequency Hearing
(East Carolina University, 2007-06)The function of the orphan glutamate receptor delta subunits (GluR 1 and GluR 2) remains unclear. GluR 2 is expressed exclusively in the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum, and GluR 1 is prominently expressed in inner ear ... -
Osteopontin is not Critical for Otoconia Formation or Balance Function
(East Carolina University, 2008-06)Unlike the structural and mechanical role of bone crystals, the inertial mass of otoconia crystals provides a shearing force to stimulate the mechanoreceptors of the utricle and saccule (the gravity receptor organ)under ... -
Otoconin-90 Deletion Leads to Imbalance but Normal Hearing: A Comparison with Other Otoconia Mutants
(East Carolina University, 2008-04)Our sense of gravitation and linear acceleration is mediated by stimulation of vestibular hair cells through displacement of otoconia in the utricle and saccule (the gravity receptor organ). We recently showed that otoconin-90 ...
